Am                     G

the violence
           F    G      Am
Because the war is not over
              F          G        
until you can feel love, peace, 
       Am
and hear silence
   G       Am
But I smell gunpowder

Am                     G
God, my brother's been dead ever 
since
F                               C
I didn't believe it, but when I saw 
him I was convinced
Am                     G
Two to the head he was already dead 
Lord,
F                           C    
I headed for revenge in the city 
           Am
of Port Au Prince
